Testimonials

Our son has achieved so much with your help and guidance, not only in his martial arts studies, but in all aspects of his life. It has been the difference maker in his successes at school, at home, and everywhere he goes. His confidence, patience, and perseverance when problem solving is the direct result of your program, your staff, programs such as Invictus, and his achievement of first degree black belt. Thank you for being such an important part of our family.

We would like to express our gratitude and thanks to you and Mrs. Garza for such a wonderful birthday party experience for [our daughter]. All of the kids were engaged and had a great time. Several parents commented that it was the best birthday party the had ever been to. It really made her feel very special and breaking her first board was a great inspirational experience she continues to talk about.

We would not have achieved our goal if it is not for amazing coaches like yourself and Mrs. Garza. Your leadership and sportsmanship are top-notch. My family and I owe it to you all. It’s been an amazing experience from beginning to end. You are our role model and live as an example of how to persevere in difficulty. We can’t think of a coach more motivating, patient, and inspirational than you. You are truly the best coach ever and we are so grateful.

The family is in transit back from D.C. where we’ve been for a week. I have to say that Invictus definitely helped me mentally and physically for this trip. I honestly don’t know that I could have done this trip, mentally, without Invictus and some mental toughness training. I have to say “thanks” for helping me do this and to know some ways to keep everyone positive and motivated along the way!

Mr. Hackbarth and Mrs. Garza, thank you for teaching us the [instructor drills]. I am practicing it at home. I also really appreciated the opportunities to help lead. Thank you both for everything you do and for challenging us.

[Our son] has been extremely dedicated to Invictus this week. He has completed the daily challenges on his own with zero reminders from his dad or me. This alone is such a neat thing to see! He has been making healthier food choices this week and has requested a green smoothie three days in a row! Additionally, he is doing extremely well in school; he has remained on the AB honor roll all year. Even being enrolled in honors math and honors ELA.
